Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has undergone elbow surgery.

The operation was performed by doctor Didier Fontes in Paris. Mourinho may have to wear a sling as a precaution for a few days, but the operation came in a relatively lean period in Chelsea's fixture schedule.

Chelsea stated on Twitter: "Jose Mourinho today underwent a minor arthroscopic procedure on a long-standing elbow complaint. He will return to work tomorrow."
